Comparing 9, the short, and 9, the full-length movie

Image
  Short film :  The first thing we noticed was the quality of the film. It’s almost as if you’re filming with a camera whose lens is dirty. The poor quality, paired with the low lighting, was almost hard to watch. It was hard to see the characters at times, especially since they were carrying around a mere bulb they took from a lamp, and the sun was never out. The lighting goes with the genre, but it’s hard to understand what you can’t see. The film is also quite confusing on its own.

From the video, we were also intrigued by their focus on La Jette' s editing style. For example, they used different techniques to convey the story, but how the 12 monkeys conveyed the same story differently.    Our biggest takeaway was how in the film La Jette the audio in a scene would be simple and undertoned yet helped to convey the emotions the director...

Short Film Research: (Slice)

  CAMS Aerial Shot to show subject and their environment Wide Shot allows the audience to see the character moving in the scene Close Up helps the audience to focus on one particular part of the character Two Shot to show the interaction between two characters Medium Shot allows the audience to focus on the scene as a whole, rather than just a single character Mis-en-scene Costumes that match the character's energy (crazy or calm) Colored Lighting to Emphasize Kiss Blush as makeup to show Nervousness Phone is used as a communication device Messy Room to match messy emotions Editing Split Screen to show more of the character in the environment and the other character Zoom allows for an extra emphasis Eyeline Match allows the audience to see what the character is seeing Example Films The Wizard of Oz Alice in Wonderland A Wrinkle in Time Elements We Like The wide shot really helps the audience to understand how the character and scene are related The use of a split screen becomes hel...
